Causeway Seafood Restaurant is a Hong Kong-style Chinese Restaurant along E. Rodriguez Jr. Ave., Libis, Quezon City. While its seafood and a la carte menus are very good, what makes the restaurant popular is its value-for-money dimsum.
The dimsum at Causeway is pretty inexpensive, ranging from P60 to P85 (or around $1.30 to $2) per order, cheaper on weekday nights. But for that price range of dimsum, Causeway is probably one of the best in the metropolis. The choices of dimsum are impressive as well.
Like traditional dimsum restaurants, you order your dimsum from your dimsum cart, separately from your a la carte orders.
From the a la carte menu, the pata tim (pork leg in a sweet stew) and beef tenderloin with garlic are good.
The ambience is relaxed, like most inexpensive Chinese restaurants. The dining area is well-staffed with friendly waiters, and the owner himself is often at the restaurant as well. The bar sells beer (including Tsingtao), fruit juices and shakes, and sodas.
Expect to spend about P300 per head if you just order dimsum and rice; and maybe up to P500 per head if you order from the a la carte menu.
Causeway delivers to nearby residences and office buildings as well.
